All fights start standing up
We will take a look at the correlation between strikes attempted, strikes percentage, and compare this to win percentage
Here we have the strike percentage calculated
Let \(SA\) be significant strikes attempted
Let \(SL\) be significant strikes landed
Then significant strike percentage be (\(S_{\text{%}}\)): \[ S_{\text{%}} = \frac{SL}{SA} \]
All fights end up on the ground
We will take a look at the correlation between takedowns, takedown percentage, and compare this to win percentage
Here we have the takedown percentage calculated
Let \(TL\) be takedowns landed
Let \(TA\) be takedowns attempted
Then, the takedown percentage (\(TD_{\%}\)) can be calculated as: \[ TD_{\%} = \frac{TL}{TA} \]
\[ H_A: \text{Better Fighting} = \text{ More attempts landing} = \text{ Wins } \]
